Book Optimal Regulation of Linear Symmetric Hyperbolic Systems with Finite Dimensional Controls

Download or read book Optimal Regulation of Linear Symmetric Hyperbolic Systems with Finite Dimensional Controls written by David L. Russell and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finite dimensional control of a class of linear symmetric hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations is considered. The control criterion is minimization of the energy of the system at a given time T after the exercise of control is begun. It is shown that the optimal control exists and satisfies a maximum principle. A type of normality condition is discussed. It is shown that a class of boundary value control problems can be treated in this setting. Some numerical procedures are suggested. (Author).

Book Infinite Dimensional Linear Control Systems

Download or read book Infinite Dimensional Linear Control Systems written by and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2005-07-12 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than forty years, the equation y’(t) = Ay(t) + u(t) in Banach spaces has been used as model for optimal control processes described by partial differential equations, in particular heat and diffusion processes. Many of the outstanding open problems, however, have remained open until recently, and some have never been solved. This book is a survey of all results know to the author, with emphasis on very recent results (1999 to date). The book is restricted to linear equations and two particular problems (the time optimal problem, the norm optimal problem) which results in a more focused and concrete treatment. As experience shows, results on linear equations are the basis for the treatment of their semilinear counterparts, and techniques for the time and norm optimal problems can often be generalized to more general cost functionals. The main object of this book is to be a state-of-the-art monograph on the theory of the time and norm optimal controls for y’(t) = Ay(t) + u(t) that ends at the very latest frontier of research, with open problems and indications for future research. Key features: · Applications to optimal diffusion processes. · Applications to optimal heat propagation processes. · Modelling of optimal processes governed by partial differential equations. · Complete bibliography. · Includes the latest research on the subject. · Does not assume anything from the reader except basic functional analysis. · Accessible to researchers and advanced graduate students alike · Applications to optimal diffusion processes. · Applications to optimal heat propagation processes. · Modelling of optimal processes governed by partial differential equations. · Complete bibliography. · Includes the latest research on the subject. · Does not assume anything from the reader except basic functional analysis. · Accessible to researchers and advanced graduate students alike

Book Applied Optimal Control Theory of Distributed Systems

Download or read book Applied Optimal Control Theory of Distributed Systems written by K.A. Lurie and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents an extended and substantially revised version of my earlierbook, Optimal Control in Problems ofMathematical Physics,originally published in Russian in 1975. About 60% of the text has been completely revised and major additions have been included which have produced a practically new text. My aim was to modernize the presentation but also to preserve the original results, some of which are little known to a Western reader. The idea of composites, which is the core of the modern theory of optimization, was initiated in the early seventies. The reader will find here its implementation in the problem of optimal conductivity distribution in an MHD-generatorchannel flow.Sincethen it has emergedinto an extensive theory which is undergoing a continuous development. The book does not pretend to be a textbook, neither does it offer a systematic presentation of the theory. Rather, it reflects a concept which I consider as fundamental in the modern approach to optimization of dis tributed systems. Bibliographical notes,though extensive, do not pretend to be exhaustive as well. My thanks are due to ProfessorJean-Louis Armand and ProfessorWolf Stadler whose friendly assistance in translating and polishing the text was so valuable. I am indebted to Mrs. Kathleen Durand and Mrs. Colleen Lewis for the hard job of typing large portions of the manuscript.

Book A Survey of Optimal Control of Distributed parameter Systems

Download or read book A Survey of Optimal Control of Distributed parameter Systems written by Alfred C. Robinson and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report is a survey of theoretical and computational methods in the field of optimal control of distributed parameter systems. This includes systems described by integral equations and partial differential equations. The various studies which have been done are grouped according to the method employed. A number of applications and potential applications of these methods are discussed, and certain deficiencies in the current state of knowledge are noted. Difficulties and opportunities in practical applications are discussed, and suggestions are offered for directions of research to render the results more readily usable. A list of references is included numbering more than 250 items: papers, report, and books.

Book An Introduction to Optimal Control Theory

Download or read book An Introduction to Optimal Control Theory written by Aaron Strauss and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper is intended for the beginner. It is not a state of-the-art paper for research workers in the field of control theory. Its purpose is to introduce the reader to some of the problems and results in control theory, to illustrate the application of these re sults, and to provide a guide for his further reading on this subject. I have tried to motivate the results with examples, especial ly with one canonical, simple example described in §3. Many results, such as the maximum principle, have long and difficult proofs. I have omitted these proofs. In general I have included only the proofs which are either (1) not too difficult or (2) fairly enlightening as to the nature of the result. I have, however, usually attempted to draw the strongest conclusion from a given proof. For example, many existing proofs in control theory for compact targets and uniqueness of solutions also hold for closed targets and non-uniqueness. Finally, at the end of each section I have given references to generalizations and origins of the results discussed in that section. I make no claim of completeness in the references, however, as I have often been content merely to refer the reader either to an exposition or to a paper which has an extensive bibliography. IV These 1ecture notes are revisions of notes I used for aseries of nine 1ectures on contro1 theory at the International Summer Schoo1 on Mathematica1 Systems and Economics held in Varenna, Ita1y, June 1967.

Book Control and Dynamic Systems Volume 36

Download or read book Control and Dynamic Systems Volume 36 written by Richard A Leondes and published by Newnes. This book was released on 1990-09-28 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Control and Dynamic Systems: Advances in Theory and Applications, Volume 36 reviews advances in theory and applications of large scale control and dynamic systems. Contributors focus on production control and the determination of optimal production rates, along with active control systems, uncertainty in control system design, and methods for analyzing multistage commodity markets. This volume is organized into eight chapters and begins with an introduction to multiobjective decision-tree analysis and its significance in applied situations, with two substantive examples. It then shifts to important techniques for the determination of robust economic policies, methods used in the analysis of multistage commodity markets, and a computationally effective algorithm for the determination of the optimal production rate. This book also describes many highly effective techniques for near optimal and robust model truncation. Robust adaptive identification and control algorithms for disturbances and unmodeled system dynamics are given consideration. The final chapter provides examples of the applied significance of the techniques presented in this book, including such large scale systems areas as aerospace, defense, chemical, environmental, and infrastructural industries. This book will be of interest to students and researchers in engineering and computer science.
